Built on the popular open source library, Shepherd Pro improves upon the expandability of the library by adding analytics, advanced targeting, and in-app journey creator to ensure that you can guide your users to that a-ha! moment of your application.
๐ Hey Product Hunt!
Weโre thrilled to introduce you to Shepherd Pro, a powerful new tool designed to transform the way you create and manage user journeys and onboarding experiences. ๐
๐ What is Shepherd Pro?
Shepherd Pro is here to make product tours and user guidance seamless and effective, helping users navigate your application effortlessly. Our tool is built to empower you with the flexibility to create personalized, context-aware user journeys that enhance user engagement and satisfaction.
๐ก Why We Built Shepherd Pro
The idea for Shepherd Pro originated from our experiences with the challenges developers and product teams face when creating effective onboarding experiences. Many tools were either too rigid, lacking customization, or required frequent deployments to implement and change.
We wanted to create a solution that strikes a balance between flexibility and ease of use, allowing teams to craft user journeys that are not only tailored to individual needs but are also easy to manage and adapt over time. By focusing on the real-world use cases weโve worked on and the user feedback weโve received, we built Shepherd Pro to be a comprehensive platform that grows with your needs, providing insights and flexibility without the complexity.
๐ Key Features:
1. Advanced Targeting Options:
User Attributes: Customize journeys based on specific user details, such as email or user ID, to create personalized experiences.
Journey Engagement: Identify and engage users who are new to your platform or have not completed a specific journey.
URL-Based Targeting: Trigger journeys based on specific URLs, ensuring that the user receives the most relevant guidance at the right time.
2. Seamless Journey Creation:
Code-Free Configuration: Manage and adjust journeys directly within the Shepherd app using intuitive JSON configuration, eliminating the need for code deployments.
Dynamic Content Updates: Easily modify text, content, and step sequences to optimize user flows and adapt to changing user needs.
3. Comprehensive Analytics Integration:
User Engagement Insights: Gain deep insights into user interactions and engagement through integrated analytics, allowing you to measure success and identify areas for improvement.
Analytics Platform Integrations: Seamlessly connect with platforms like PostHog and Amplitude to track and analyze user behavior throughout their journey.
4. Open-Source Roots:
Open-Source Flexibility: Leverage our open-source library for deeper customization and integration into your existing tech stack.

Chuck & the Shepherd Pro Team
Hey Chuck,
How granular does it get in terms of tracking user behavior through the journeys? Given the open-source roots, are there any plans to allow community contributions or extensions to the pro version?
Congrats on the launch!
@kyrylosilin yes, the pro extension is also open source and we'd welcome contributions!
The events tracked are when a journey is started, each step clicked through, and whether the journey is canceled or completed.
